Wonderful accommodation and food. Sightings of Elephant,zebra,giraffe,and many others.

Around the lodge there is plenty to do from game and bird watching, photography or join us on a guide game drive or walk within Balule Nature Reserve.

Let Maninhgi Lodge be your affordable nature escape away from home.
